Michael Johann Hoeft

Dear John and Lisa, We are keeping you close to our hearts, to make me feel better my mom told me this, "It looks like God needs a kicker for the team!" Mike took me in like a little brother, and i really appreciate that feeling he gave me of having an older brother. I will cherish the time we spent together and i will always see him as an older brother!! We love you!

A month tomorrow?
It's can't be.

Thinking about you being gone for that long sends chills up my spine. It seems like only yesterday you and I were sittin in the halls @ Simley crackin jokes about the dumbest stuff.

I'm trying to let this all sink in, and it honestly feels like a nightmare that I just can't wake up from=[

I miss you more and more everyday.
Can't wait till I see you again<3

Dear John, Lisa and Brent:

Henry and I were deeply saddened to learn of Michael's passing. We both remember well what a good natured and friendly person he was. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this difficult time.

Our Sympathy,

Henry & Denise Boeder

Dear John, Lisa, and Brent,
I was so shocked and saddened by Michael's death. I was not sad for him but for all the ones he left behind. He is experiencing the joy of Heaven, the ultimate goal, one we can only dream about. I remember him when I subbed at COL. He did like to test the boundaries, but he was a respectful student. He had such a infectious grin, that was sometimes hard to resist. I just can't imagine what you are going through, but I do know you are not alone. Thank God...

Dear Hoeft family,
I am praying that God will keep you close to Him as you heal from this loss. Michael is with his Savior, and there is no better place for him to be!
